Icon Racing Blue by Alfred Dunhill, launched in 2021, is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the spirit of modern adventure and sophistication. The composition opens with bright lime and bergamot, providing a fresh, invigorating start before transitioning to an aromatic heart of ambroxan, sea salt, cardamom, neroli, and coriander. This blend creates a dynamic tension between freshness and warmth. The base notes, featuring driftwood, ambergris, sandalwood, and patchouli, add depth and an earthy richness that grounds the fragrance.

Application Tips
For best results, apply two sprays to pulse points. The citrus and aromatic notes are bright but fade after an hour, so allow the woody base to develop on skin throughout the day. This fragrance is better suited for daytime wear when its fresh, invigorating character shines brightest.
